What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides robust patterns for building horizontally-scalable WebSocket servers, ensuring real-time communication can handle increasing load and multiple instances.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Horizontal Scaling: Coordinate WebSocket connections across multiple server instances using Redis.
• Lazy Subscriptions: Efficiently manage Redis subscriptions, only connecting when clients are actively listening to a channel.
• Graceful Shutdown: Ensures connections are properly closed and resources are released during server termination.
• Use Case: Building a real-time chat application where you need to support thousands of concurrent users across several server instances.
